Chowan Hospital has been
awarded a three-year, $150,000
grant to establish Outpatient
Diabetes Clinics in the hospi
tal’s service area.
The grant, under the Rural
Health Care Transition Grants
Program, is administered by
the United States Department
of Health and Human Services.
There are about 3,500 people
in the hospital’s service area
who have been diagnosed as
diabetic, and another estimat
ed 3,500 who have it, but don’t
know it. Diabetes and its com
plications cause over 70 deaths
each year in Chowan
Hospital’s service area, more
than twice the national aver
age. Untreated diabetes causes
blindness, heart disease, kid
ney failure and amputation of
limbs.
According to the American
Diabetes Association, diabetes
is the fourth leading cause of
deaths in the United States,
and is especially prevalent
among black Americans and
people of Hispanic origin. For
each person who has been
diagnosed as diabetic, there is
one who has the disease but
doesn’t know it.
The diabetes clinics will
provide patients education
and monitoring to include use
of insulin, risk factors of con
trolled diabetes, symptoms
and treatment of hypo/hyper
glycemia, medications, glucose
monitoring, sick day manage
ment, travel tips, foot care and
how to exercise.
The clinic will seek to coor
dinate care with all health
care providers in the various
communities, including Social
Service Departments, Health
Departments, Rural Health
Clinics, Home Health
Agencies, Home Care Services
and private physicians.
